# Wizard (agent skill)

> Wizard is an agent skill (a SKILL.md file) from mattpocock/skills. Generate an interactive bash wizard that walks a human through steps only they can perform. It works with Claude Code and Codex and has 278,361 GitHub stars across a repository of 15 listed skills.

Generate an interactive bash wizard that walks a human through steps only they can perform. Use when provisioning infrastructure, setting up credentials or CI secrets, walking an unfamiliar third-party dashboard, or running a one-off migration or cutover. Don't invoke this for steps the agent can perform itself. A wizard is a bash script that walks a human, step by step, through a manual procedure that's tedious to do by hand and tedious to re-explain to an AI every time.
